~/.profile works for bash, but not all other login shells.
This setting PATH is a minor convenience for users, particuarly since
typing on android is so much harder. The usual linux standalone bundle
just expects the user to know how to add it to PATH. I don't want this
code to grow special cases for every possible login shell. So displaying a
message to the presumably minority who don't use bash seems like the best
choice.
Longer term, I'd hope termux gets some way to set an environment variable
for all login shells. Systems using PAM can, via ~/.pam_environment. Or
alternatively, add a git-annex package to termux, even if just an installer
package. I'd rather spend time on either of those than on making this minor
thing support more login shells.

Fixes bug that caused git-annex to fail to add a file when another
git-annex process cleaned up the temp directory it was using.
Solution is just to push withOtherTmp out to a higher level, so that
the whole ingest process can be completed inside it.
But in the assistant, that was not practical to do, since withOtherTmp runs
in the Annex monad and the assistant does not. Worked around by introducing
a separate temp directory that only the assistant uses for lockdown.
Since only one assistant can run at a time, it's easy to clean up that
directory of old cruft at startup.
This is only done for correctness sake; I don't see any way that it
would have caused a problem here. The jlog file escaped withOtherTmp
so another process could swoop in and delete it, but the file is only
used as a buffer for a list of filenames, and its handle gets rewound
and they're read back out, which will still work even if it's already
been deleted.
The only reason I didn't just pre-delete the file and keep the handle
open is I'm not sure that works on all OS's (eg Windows). If there was
a problem that this fixed it might involve an OS that doesn't support
deleting an open file or something like that.
Fix reversion in last release that caused wrong tree to be written to
remote tracking branch after an export of a subtree.
The invariant "commitsha should have the treesha as its tree"
was not met due to a bug. Guarantee it's met by catting the commitsha
to find its actual tree. A little bit slower, but this is not run often.
